Installation-level source data

Preserve production volumes, direct and applicable indirect emissions inputs, methodology, source records and review status.

Version control

When methodology or source values change, prior importer responses should remain traceable to the version actually released.

Emissa workflow

Emissa can connect installation data and evidence to products, customers, shipments, owners and approved response packages.

Authoritative sources

Frequently asked questions

Are all aluminium products covered?

No. Current CN-code scope determines applicability.

Why preserve versions?

The value communicated to an importer should remain traceable to the source data and methodology used at that time.

Can the same installation data support multiple importers?

Yes, when the scope and reporting period are appropriate and the data has been reviewed for the intended use.
